I can imagine everything I could, so today I am gonna imagine some scores to categorize India according to Hofstede.

So, let me start by posting that I imagine India as a country with a high degree of unequallity, where people work as a whole taking into account people around them, with a competitive environment where people maintain rigid codes and beliefs. Also, where people is afraid of the societal change maintaining themselves tied to norms and traditions that in adittion, suppress the gratification of their needs.

In the other hand, Colombia compared with India is a country with a not too high degree of inequality where most of people just worry about themselves, with a middle-term competitive environment where people is relaxed and don’t worry about the future. Also, with people afraid of societal change maintaining tied to norms and beliefs but not as it was on old times and people enjoy life and have fun.

Last class, teacher ask to the classroom to put their hands up if they feel identified with a category of the Lewis Model. Once he finished mentioning all categories he realised that most of the students feel identified with the cateogories Multi-active and reactive. There are a lot of people in the world, so it wouldn’t be weird if people from different countries feel identified with the same category of the Lewis model and that is this case. People from India are ubicated between Multi-active and reactive category inside the Lewis Model. So if an Indian student come to Barranquilla to study, he won’t come across through many problems because both cultures are similar. Maybe if there is an Indian that feel identified with the linear-active category, he would take into account many strategies like be patient and try to be more flexible in order to adapt himself to Barranquilleros.

It is a common situation in many countries around the world to think “Women are oppressed”, but it shouldn’t. When we let people think that women in a country are oppressed, we states that this situation still continues and they aren´t doing something to change it. If women would be oppressed, there could not be possibility of a change, neither. 
Commonly, people relate women with a general place: home; also, relate them with activities like: cook, sweep and take care of her children. So, with time this has become in the common stereotype of a lot of countries. Among those countries, we can find Colombia and India. 

At India, for example, girls are worthless than boys at family and it is the reason by which the rate of girls aborted, abandoned and abused is very high in this country. Generally, girls help with house-works since his childhood, they can’t play and get fun on their free time, some girls don’t go to school and even, when they are in orphanages the olders have to take of the youngest children because they have to get responsability to be a good woman, responsibility that is not instiled on boys.
Instead, at Colombia, girls can do this things. They help with house-works when are teenagers, they can play and get fun in their childhood, they get access to education and they are not raise up to instil them a sense of responsibility. However, a common aspect in both countries is that women’s roles in social, political and economical aspect is low due to the exclusion. 

In the last years, women have empowers women about their situation and his place in the society. Nowaday, we can see a lot of women exerting as engineers, scientifics, politicians. This situation is changing with and women are making this change every day bigger.

I have learned a little about India on TV channels, like National Geographic, and after that I just tend to think in Indians as brown skin people who live in a developing country.

Always when I think in India I imagine a big country in which everywhere you looks you will see sand and dust, also, I imagine a country full of bikes and “motocarros” which are a kind of bike with 3 wheels and a bodywork. 
In other hand, I imagine thousands, or even millions, of people walking in the day sweating due to very high temperatures; I imagine women of brown skin, big and round eyes and with point on her forehead; I imagine children without shoes running on the street and also, I imagine that in every street there is a man with a flute making dance a Cobra; I imagine people eating fried frog; I imagine a lot of cows in the streets and in Holidays imagine people venerating cows.
